Lucy Stillman ❖ 001 [Video]

[assassininheels]

[The video feed starts with the Portal of who's ever on being dropped on the floor of a bedroom. The view then settles on a blond young woman, her face conveying her panic and pain as she looks down at her heavily blood stained shirt. The blood seems fresh enough to transfer to her hands, but she lifts up the fabric to reveal the creamy skin of

[That is a blood. Sean is kind of worried, but she doesn't look like she's about ... die, or anything, so...]

Wait, you've been here before?

...Are you okay?

[assassininheels]

[Her PORTAL now in hand, she looks at the screen and her eyebrows raise up. He seems so young!]

I have. Not for that long, but enough to recognize the mask and....mirror.

[She offers the young man a smile that's meant to be reassuring. He doesn't need to know that she's freaking out.]

[screamsup]

[He's been through a lot worse, Lucy. No need to worry.]

Pretty weird, huh? Being stuck here. At least you can dream up anything you want, right?

[He smiles back.]

I'm Sean.

[assassininheels]

[Still, he's just a kid and he should be stuck here.]

Weird is not the term I would used for it. [She still smiles a little, indicating that she's amused by his choice of words] Inconvenient, annoying, frustrating is more akin to what I feel.

I'm Lucy. It's nice to meet you Sean. How long have you been here for?

[screamsup]

Well, any of those will do, too.

[He grins, but then it falters.]

Maybe a month or two? I didn't count.

[She nods slowly]

I see. [Sadly the boy is not going to be able to bring her up to date with this world.]

Did anything happened since you have arrived?

[screamsup]

My best friend didn't wear a mask so he got punished for it pretty bad.

[He rolls his eyes, accompanied by a sigh.]

I don't have any 'useful' information, you're better off asking someone else who's been here longer and knows more than I do.

[He's pouting a bit, like he wants to help, but.... he can't.]

[assassininheels]

[That makes her frown deeply]

So they still do that...I'm sorry to hear that. Is he all right?

[She recognizes that look: she's seen it often on Desmond after all]

Well, maybe you can help me find some of them? have you met any that have been here for a long time?

video;

[screamsup]

Oh, yeah, he's fine.

[He shrugs, shaking his head.]

I've heard of Tony Stark. I bet you could ask him a few things.

[assassininheels]

[He eyebrows raise slowly]

Tony is still here? [The Assassin can't help but wonder if he still leads some sort of Resistance against the King and Queen of this place.]

video;

[screamsup]

Yeah. He has something going on, but I'm not supposed to talk about it on the PORTAL. That's what the Professor said, anyway.

[assassininheels]

[She nods slowly, knowing exactly what the young man refers to. She'll need to contact Tony again to see if she can still help. At least here, she can have a purpose.]

If your professor says so, then I suppose it's important that you listen to him.

[The serious light in her eyes and the tone she uses makes it clear that she doesn't need to be told what it is Tony does.]

[screamsup]

[Sean nods, smiling, happy she understands.]

Oh, he can probably help, too, y'know? With everything. His name's Charles Xavier.

[assassininheels]

[She can't help but smile back at Sean. What a cute kid.]

What sort of professor is he?

[She does have a doctorate on neurogenetics after all. Maybe she can discuss things and what not with the man.]

video;

[screamsup]

He taught me and a few other people here how to control our powers.

[He frowns, wondering if he should have told her. Well, if she doesn't accept it, whatever. he's used to it.]

[video; private]

[assassininheels]

[She sees the frown and wonders about that. There's a long pause as Lucy changes the settings of her PORTAL to a more private settings. Good thing she can remember how that thing works.]

What sort of powers?

[She's genuinely curious. She remembers this world having all sort of people after all. Beside, it's not like one her team member had not unusual abilities too]
